Cool. What are you listening on it?

 

[gesucks]

I am using a radio and special OTA software

Hmmm... ? Probably something I cannot afford

I think that's just the city's main system: District of Columbia Trunking System, District of Columbia, District of Columbia - Scanner Frequencies

As a person who lives here, PD is largely encrypted (there's a few random TG's in the clear and sometimes you'll hear something, and sometimes you won't). FD is mostly in the clear...I use PulsePoint to alert me to a structure fire call, and then tune the radio to listen in. UDC is also in the clear, although being a university, their PD isn't all that exciting to listen to.

Mostly, I monitor Montgomery County, which offers plenty of action and operates in the clear.

Yes we all know that is the system. The information was posted for those who need the IDEN and updated info

Need advice

I’m am in search of advice. I am totally new to this. I am looking to by an hand held scanner to listen to DC Fire & ems mainly. From what I understand I need one that can receive p25 phase 2 and am looking for something that is not expensive. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have no idea what I need. Thanks in advance.

If you are looking for Uniden....there are a lot of 436HP's going on the market used since the SDS100 came out. Would not pay more than $350-400 in like new condition (my opinion) as they are new at Amazon for $415. Also look for Whistlers 1088 handheld ($408 @Amazon) or TRX-1 Handheld (which does P2 and Monitors, not tracks, NXDN and DMR as well.) but is more expensive at $474 (Also Amazon). Good luck.
